Open Heaven Within Luke 3:21
Luke 3:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Luke 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Luke 3:21 presents baptism and prayer as a doorway to higher awareness; when purification and petition are joined, a heaven-like openness enters your consciousness. It's an inward shift you can experience in the present moment.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the Luke text, baptism and praying are not external acts but inner states converging in consciousness. The heaven that opens is the rising awareness of the I AM, a shift that occurs when the mind willingly leans into purity and petition. Jesus represents the fully awakened state of I AM within every person, not as a historical figure but as the presence you awaken. When you immerse your attention in the feeling of 'I AM' and hold to it, you pass through the imagined ceiling of ordinary perception and enter a larger field of reality where divine presence, guidance, and redemption become accessible. This is your salvation as waking to consciousness—your inner home where the Father, the Source, is always present. The practice is to persist in the assumption that you are already one with that heaven, letting imagination confirm truth as your daily experience.
Practice This Now
Assume you are baptized in consciousness now. In quiet, imagine a door of light opening above you as you softly say, I AM. Rest in that space, feeling the presence wash over you.
